Added by Desert Pea Media

Description During 2020/21 - independent researcher Natalie Moxham from Leanganook Yarn conducted an Evaluation Process of Desert Pea Media's 'Break It Down - Community Conversations Around Mental Health' Project in North Coast NSW, in partnership with Healthy North Coast.

'Break It Down’ is an Original Nations youth mental health literacy program, focusing on social and emotional wellbeing, and drug and alcohol prevention. The project is a connected and meaningful collaborative engagement, creative workshop, and content development activities that brings together DPM, local Original Nations communities, Aboriginal Health Services, representatives of health agencies, as well as education and other relevant community stakeholders.

This film explores the findings of a detailed Evaluation Report that came from consultations with communities that had participated in the "Break It Down" project. In this film we hear directly from young people, community members, stakeholders, teachers and the Deputy Director of Healthy North Coast - Marni Tuala.
